A relaxed Home Alone rewatch chat that keeps its focus on the quotes and family chaos.

E92 Predator Badlands 2025Nov 12, 2025

A candid Predator check-in that values the new ideas more than the presentation.

Josh frames Predator Badlands as a franchise swing that tries to do more than repeat the usual pattern, with Deck, the smaller outcast Predator, at the center of the hunt for the Kalik so he can win back his place.

E91 Psycho 1960Apr 13, 2024

A loose Psycho chat that mixes memory, movie lore, and motel talk.

A loose, nostalgic Power Rangers chat that turns franchise memory into an easy, low-pressure listen.

This episode treats Power Rangers as a broad sweep of nostalgia, moving from the early Fox Kids promo into the show, the toys, the movies, the video games, and the merchandise built around it.

E94 Let's Talk About Superman

A laid-back Superman discussion built on banter, history, and franchise chatter.

The Escape Podcast treats Superman as a relaxed, broad overview, beginning with the character's 1938 Action Comics debut and creator history before widening out into franchise talk.
